🚛 Are 3PLs worth investing in?
🎧 In today's podcast episode, we're chatting with Muhammad Imran Tahir, Logistics Advisor for Aramco Americas. Join us now to learn about the benefits of 3PLs and more!
“We've been in business for many years, and we would handle our own logistics from ground zero. When I say ground zero, meaning sourcing, trucking, packaging. We would do the whole nine yards to deliver what we have for our end-users, our customers. But for a period of time, we were not able to see the economies of scale that we could achieve by what we currently do as a practice versus what the market would be using. And here, we decided to go with a 3PL model and use the services of freight forwarders who are actually greater subject experts on the shipping requirements and trade lanes. And they collectively have better pricing strategies because they use volumes of a lot of other clientele that they have more bargaining power.”
